For example I want to post some discussions about Taoyuan or Kaohsiung or Tainan or another city.
And I want to post a comment and maybe start a discussion about Tainan but there is no forum for Tainan.
But there are no areas.
Yes there are some city forums for restaurants and a forum for events but that is not discussion by city.
Could really open up possibilities.
Kaohsiung, especially I think there’s so much but there’s just no Kaohsiung forum.
I think that’s why Facebook is more successful in places outside of Taipei because everything here is Taipei centric.
Formuosa Taipei would be a good description of here. And other people from other places in Taiwan do add some comments but it’s all either random comments or Travel Taiwan comment which really should not be that way. It should be people talking about where they live in Taiwan.
Not in favor of forums by cities. That said, I’ve always wondered what is the intended distinction between Greater Taipei Restaurants/Events and Northern Taiwan Restaurants/Events categories.
Maybe some people have noticed, I have started to change titles and add tags to all topics in the travel forums to make them easier to search. I think for travel it would work fine to have categories based on geography, because content is mostly information about travel in specific places, and less general discussions, but for Living in Taiwan it would be too difficult to sort topics based on geography.
There is a “Living in Taiwan” thread under “Living”. Might be nice to add “Living in (city/county)” threads to that list. So the list would look something like:
Living in Taiwan
Living in Taipei
Living in New Taipei
Keelung
Hualien
Taitung
Pingtung
Kaohsiung
Tainan
Chiayi
Changhua
Taichung
Nantou
Hsinchu
Taoyuan
I don’t think that’s too many to handle. (I might have missed a couple. Just going off the top of my head.)
